Why did God create homosexuality?

DNB

Christian
That's not homosexuality.

Strict medical and scientific definition of the word (and heterosexuality, bisexuality, asexuality, sexual orientation, and sexuality itself) doesn't always involve sexual behavior and it definitely does not describe the nature of that behavior-lust, intimacy, or not.

Your definition is off and all that you listed is totally irrelevant nor related to the term homosexuality (heterosexuality, bisexuality, and asexuality).

This is a fact not an opinion.

Homosexuality (hetero/bi) just refers to the sex in relation to who one is attracted to.

Homo-same
Hetero-opposite
Bi-both
God never created homosexuality or wickedness, both are a deviation for what He intended for man i.e. love and respectful relationships. Homosexuality is an abomination.

UA, sorry, I'm not interested in semantics, we both know what we're talking about and what I am prohibiting - all sexual perversions. Lustful thoughts are just as egregious as the act itself, as far as what i am trying to promote - wholesome and healthy sexual practices, that should only take place between a hetero married couple.

You're talking about behavior/actions/practices.

Sexual orientation by definition has nothing to do with that.

You are talking about something completely different.

Sexual practices are derived from orientation. ...what the flippin' heck do you keep going on about????

The translators use the term incorrectly because back then they didn't know what it was in the medical definition of the term.

Homosexuality is not an action.

What is a sin is sexual promiscuity. Homosexuality, heterosexuality, bisexuality, and asexuality has Nothing to do with that.

Did you know they used to arrest people that had sex with the same gender and labeled them homosexuals? Do you agree with this?

'cause the bible labels people who have sex with the same gender as homosexuals.

It doesn't talk about who they are attracted to or not.

No.

If you stop with the attitude, talk plainly, and read what I say you'd see it has nothing to do with personal opinion but medical facts.

In your line of thinking, people with seizures are possessed with the devil and because the bible condemns people who have same-sex sex of an unforgivable sin deserving death, you agree with that too.

Did you know homosexuals were killed, abused, and kicked out of their homes because people, the law (at one time), and parents define homosexuality wrong and accused people of it they Thought were homosexuals?

From your line of thinking it "sounds like" you agree with this?

Of course homosexuals live everywhere, and come in all shapes and sizes. But, my point was that where there is this bizarre character and behaviour that i mentioned, it is predominantly, if not exclusively, in the homosexual community. It is a very indicting fact. Just as much as where there fights in bars, it's typically the same type of bar or crowd that instigated the brawl. Where there is vulgar and crass speech, there is usually a promiscuous person behind it. etc...
And in the Christian world, there are people who like to fondle poisonous snakes, or natter away in meaningless syllables supposed to be other "tongues." Want to see the best of Christianity in action? Try Fred Phelpps Westboro Baptist Church.

The minority weirdos don't define the whole.

The Bible states that if a man lies with another man they should both be stoned to death. It's my belief that homosexuals are born that way and have no choice over who they're attracted to just like a heterosexual. If this is true why would God create homosexuals when he seems so opposed to their nature? I believe in the God of the Old Testament and believe that he is righteous but I'm confused by this. Did God create homosexuals purely to destroy them or is there something else going on? Does he want a homosexual man to be celibate or to go against his nature and procreate with a woman? Is God offering him the chance to make a huge sacrifice to the highest by denying himself? What are your thoughts?

Tired of stealing wives from men (had sex with Mary, who was married to Joseph, and had baby Jesus)? Thought he'd try something different for a change? When we get to heaven, will we have to bend over a lot?

We could simply reduce Western industrial economies to preindustrial levels.
No need to destroy our environment for phones, cars, or big McMansions when mudhuts and rikshas would do the trick.

But of course, people in the West would rather choose genocide and forced sterilization of the third world, than to give up their luxurious living standards and rapacious capitalist economy.

We can perhaps at least agree over-populators should be sterilized in fully developed as well as under developed nations worldwide.

Do you not know what homosexuality is?

Sorry, but how is homosexual behavior "immoral"? You need to justify your God's claims that it is immoral. 'Because God says so" just does not cut it.
Of course, not for you. You don't believe in God, or that Baha'u'llah is a Prophet of God. To you, I recognize it is victimless.

The Bible says that men should not sleep with men, and that women should not sleep with men. Under the Levitical Law such acts were a capital crime. Ever since the Law has been abrogated, the penalty is not physical death, but spiritual death. If the sin persists and is done in defiance to God, and no repentance is avowed by the culprit, then eternal death is likely to be the fate of the reprobate.
